Manchester


Into Manchester for Clare's degree day - more photos no doubt to follow! Lovely occasion enjoyed being at a degree ceremony where I wasn't a participant (at least in one sense). Better than Cambridge where you immediately get (or at least I was) shoved out of the door after your name was called instead most had a chance to relax and enjoy others receiving their reward!
Dinner for the second time in a month at Don Giovanni's in its new location, much enjoyed both times - I see that Manchester eating has some rather mixed reviews but we were there early which probably helped the service.
Trip to the HMV shop and as a result I need to do some serious listening, two boxes of 10 cd's (£5 each!) or Furtwängler and Mengelberg amd the 21 CD Stravinsky * 2 box of boxes is in the post...
